Book excerpt: The Crocodile King is chick-lit noir, a thriller of Beauty & the Beast meets The Devil Wears Prada, the first story in a three part series, Dark Fashion. The story chronicles a young aspiring fashion editor, Jessica Styles, as she uncovers a dark conspiracy at the heart of the fashion industry and discovers a terrifying secret that will alter her life forever. The story begins in NYC a few years ago, where we are catapulted into the world of fashion through the lens of a bourgeoning digital magazine, Fan of Fashion, set up by Jessica's illustrious Oxford educated boss, in order to make a dent in what is primarily a print-dominated market. While attending a meeting at one of New York's sprawling department stores, Jessica learns by accident about a mystery man in Asia, who appears to control the precious raw-materials that the fashion industry desperately needs. Setting out for the truth, the reader travels with Jessica to grand and glamorous places in Europe and South East Asia, where we encounter the créme de la créme of it-girls, French industrialists, wealthy Asian playboys at exclusive fashion parties, hip photoshoots, underground boxing matches, crocodile farms, all connected to the secret identity of this mysterious man, and the looming war between those seeking to dominate the world of luxury. At the centre of Jessica's investigative journey is a secret Order, the Order of the Dragon, run by an influential Thai-Chinese dynasty, determined that the Asian century has finally begun, that its time has now come to assume control of the world's precious resources, starting with securing fashion's most valuable commodity, the most premium leather in the world - crocodile skins. The glitzy, glamorous world of fashion is contrasted greatly to Jessica's upbringing, her own sense of purpose in life, as well as the emerging economies that depend on the work related to commodities in order to fuel an ever-greater demand for man's insatiable appetite for luxury. The Crocodile King is a novel about fashion, but more importantly it is a novel about what lies behind fashion, its appeal, both psychological and geopolitical, as well as its historical, even environmental contradictions. It is also a story about identity, and how one's sense of self is often deeply connected to the things one loves, and fears the most.

Today we are going to take a step back in time and enter the age of the dinosaurs. The dinosaurs are an extinct species of animal that began to live on the Earth over 200 million years ago. “Extinct” means that they no longer exist. The dinosaurs are some of the most intriguing and awe-inspiring animals that have existed on our planet. The dinosaurs’ colossal size, strange characteristics, and mysterious disappearance make them inherently worthy of study and interest. Even more than these reasons, the study of dinosaurs itself is an incredible adventure which requires thought and imagination. The study of dinosaurs helps you to appreciate just how mysterious and amazing life and nature really is. Our planet supports not only us and the animals that live today, but it even supported creatures as gigantic and strange as the dinosaurs- just think how cool that is! I hope that you bring a spirit of openness and wonder to your study of the dinosaurs, and that you come to appreciate the mystery and value of the dinosaurs. The animal we are learning about today is called the Sarcosuchus. The Sarcosuchus is closely related to the dinosaurs, but it is not defined by scientists as a dinosaur. It is defined as a proto-crocodile. The Sarcosuchus is fun to learn about because it is one of the largest crocodiles to have ever lived. In this book we are going to learn about the appearance, behavior, and environment of the Sarcosuchus as well as about the dinosaurs it lived with. We know what we know about the dinosaurs from a variety of sources including fossils, biology, and other scientific disciplines. Fossils are the ancient remains of the dinosaurs, the most familiar being their bones. Biological science is the study of life in general, but many scientists compare the dinosaurs to modern day animals to support their theories. Before a talk about dinosaurs can take place it is important that we discuss the theory of evolution. Evolutionary theory supposes that all the animals we know and see today are the direct descendants of animals that existed millions of years ago. The dinosaurs and other creatures that existed millions of years ago either died out or gradually changed into different animals. For instance, birds are considered to be surviving dinosaurs because their dinosaur ancestors survived the dinosaur extinction event (we will discuss this later). The crocodiles are the modern descendants of the ancient Sarcosuchus.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Toward the end of the Age of Dinosaurs, during a time known as the Late Cretaceous, a new type of giant predator appeared along the southern coasts of North America. It was a huge species of crocodylian called Deinosuchus. Neither a crocodile nor an alligator, it was an ancestor of both modern groups; it reached weights of many tons and it had some features unique to its own species. Average-sized individuals were bigger than the carnivorous dinosaurs with which they co-existed; the largest specimens were the size of a T-rex. King of the Crocodylians, the biography of these giant beasts, tells the long history of their discovery and reports on new research about their makeup. The book also deals with the ancient life and geology of the coastal areas where Deinosuchus thrived, its competitors, and its prey, which probably included carnivorous dinosaurs. There is also detailed discussion of the methods used to determine the size of these giant animals, the dating of the fossils, the nature of their living environments, and how we know who ate whom 80 million years ago.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ancient port town of Malacca is an old town rich in history. Since the beginning of Malacca, its community was made up of a colourful potpourri of cultures and beliefs. The different communities have their own understanding of the powers of the supernatural. As far back as the year 1421, there was a written account from Chinese records of the strange and paranormal witnessed in Malacca. These stories continued in Portuguese, Dutch and British eras, up to modern times. There were accounts about hauntings, poltergeists, cryptozoology, giants, spirits, sorcery, witchcraft, shapeshifting creatures, simulacra, magical cures, strange phenomena, unusual human powers and other bizarre tales. Many of these stories have now become obscured and forgotten to us. This book contains a collection of 60 strange and paranormal stories reported from past reports, news, accounts, statements and descriptions that were officially recorded in books, journals, articles and newspapers.
